Clash is not a big deal: Imtiaz Ali

Imtiaz Ali, who directs Shah Rukh Khan in the upcoming yet-to-be-titled film, has said “clashes are not a big deal” when there are so many films and only 52 weeks in a year.

His keenly-awaited film releases in theatres during the Independence Day weekend with Akshay Kumar’s ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’, which was earlier scheduled to release on June 2.

“There are only 52 weeks in a year and some of them have been taken away by other things and of course, there are more than 52 films. So, clashes are not a big deal” Imtiaz Ali said.

The filmmaker also said they haven’t yet decided on the title. The working title of the film was ‘The Ring’.

“The name of the film is not yet decided, we have some time. On August 11, the film is going to release. So we will announce the name soon” Imtiaz said at a film event.

  • @tiger the chuha there is lots of different between raees , dilwale and fan. You can’t compare different gern movie for you and yours bhaai only money is matter eid wala star didn’t even dare to realise his movie beyond edx or eid so how can he even thought about a movie like fan in his dream who can forget for success his back to back south masala action copy paste recipe

    If dilwale and raees did well due to clashes than what d hell your’s sallu god tussi great ho and janeman and many more didn’t doing even avg bussiness that time lol… kuch v

  • @javeeda
    Main soch hi raha tha teri tabiyat tho thik hai ki nahi! “Even animals would commit suicide…”. What shit are u barking man??

    5 back to back clashes? If CE vs OUATIMD is a clash, then king khan lost a clash to Mowgli last year. And Akki trashed him in 1996 with Chaahat(6 June) vs Khiladiyon ka Khiladi(14 June). Get ready for another semi hit this independence day just like Dilwale and Raees.

  • imtiaz Ali is well talented director and
    Shahrukh Khan is biggest actor in the
    world
    Salman fans barking will be stop after
    Tubligh desister
    Akshay fans will be shamed after

  • @ Javeda Bhabhijaan,

    Don’t get so much excited otherwise You will be kicked so hard…

    Akshay has opened 2,000 and 3,000 Crores clubs and he is at top position in terms of total career collection and the all actors name you given are below to him…

    And, Why You forget that the Tingu Psycho Khan has recently crossed 1,500 crores figure and he is just half to Akki in both total career collections and in height…

    Hahahahahahaha, Chhote log, AUQAAT se bahar baat nahi karte, Munna isliye thoda kam bola kar…

  • I Dont Understand why U guys Cant Act Mature when Both the Superstars are Respectable to each Other and wants a Clean Clash.Yes If Someone Plays a Foul Game by Doing False negativity Campaign or Hoarding Distributors/Exhibitors Forcibly..Then it can Go Ugly….It was a good Clean Clash last Independence day RUSTOM vs MOHENJODARO….I Hope both Plays Fair

  • @ only TEPK in 12 aug, abe idiot in which world hrithik dominated 2000s ? On Jupiter ? SRK was the top actor of that decade and Aamir overtook him from late 2008.and also Salman not ruled 90s.I remember indicine once said in a question answer session that which khan ruled 90s .indicine replied ” we think Shahrukh khan because he was more consistent. “

  • @Ceilingkhan
    Ajay Devgn was a bigger crowdpuller than Salman in 90s
    Note it
    1 In 1993 Salman came with Chandramukhi and Dil Tera aashiq with Sridevi and Madhuri. Both lost clash with Ajay Devgns Ek hi Raasta
    2 U know the rule of clash.Bigger stars get more screen. When Hum madhurike bina hai kaun and Vijaypath clashed Vijaypath got more screens and opened 6 times more than Hahk aka Hmkbhk

    3 When Salman khan came with aamir in andaaz apna apna Ajay Akki came with Suhaag. Suhaag got 55% more opening and comfortably won the clash.
    Salmans stardom after Mpk was like Aashiqi 2 stars stardom.And calling Hahk a Salman film is calling Tanu weds Manu an R Madhvan film
    Salman succeeded as a side hero more and his market value was that of Bobby Deol
    Like Anupan Kher has most no of hgotya in that decade
    Dil beta Ddlj hum madhurike bina hai kaun kkhh.So will u say Anupam ruled 90s??
    In 90s in stardom
    Sunny >Srk>madhuri>Govinda>salman
    Another eg
    Baahubali is the biggest hit but is prabash no 1 superstar? Of course not Even not in south Salman was more like Side actor back then
    He reached 1cr opening only in 1999 He may have more 75 lakhs but that is due to more films and mostly in 1999 when Aamir had an offbeat film and srk 1 release only
    Salman in opening was ahead of srk in opening solo in 1999 only Else 75lakhs was a Bobby Deol benchmark

  • I am really disappointed indicine,when haters bash akki u have been publishing it n when his fans reply those haters u never publish it,why so much biasedness towards ur srk,this is not good.I have been observing it since many days.accept that srk is at 3 rd followed by akki very narrowly.if tepk gets hit verdict n rehnuma semi hit just like queens earlier movies akki will move to 3rd n ur bhagoda khan to 4 th.this comment is for u guys not for users.

  • @fan pk : How many times you will cry over Eid ? Clashes ? Flops ?

    Kuch naya sooch aur naya bol. Wahi ghissi piti kahani !!!!!

  • Last few years Srk fans were consistently chanting over genre of Salman movies. Currently even Akki is trying different and gangu teli still stuck with $hitty ROMance genre despite being a 51 yrs old Buddha !!!!!! Lol

    #Karma

    TEPK will win the clash !!!!!

  • @sayar you nailed it bro. It’s a tight slap on tiger d real chauha’s face. Bhaai in those clashes he didn’t got free publicity bcoz that time tiger urf chuha was not born.. lol

    Same before 2010 he didn’t deleverd even avg grosser and gave back to back disasters bcoz that time his stardom was on leave and enjoying holidays in goa…. hehe…

  • It is funny when some gangu teli fans are comparing Diwali release with non holiday release. Going by their logic ETT did 32 crs (opening) in 2012 & FAN did 19 crs in 2016. Seriously, they need a treatment !!!!!!

  • After seeing the comments i have realized that .. people will say rite that sallu fan base is the worst fan base and illiterate fan base… hadd hai illiteracy ki bhi… troll karna hai srk ko karo magar apna dimaag use karke karo.. pataa nai sablog apne satrs ko srk se kyu compare karte hai ?? itni kyu jalti hai salmans aamir akshay ajay hrithik fans ki srk se?? y its always become srk vs all when his movie releases ?? but ek baad yaad rakho haters jab tak hum srkians srk ke saath hai .. srk ka koi baal bhi baaka nai karr sakta .. because we are permanent fans of srk .. hum new movies aur new heroes ke saath apna idol nai badalte… hum srk ke sabse badey fan hai aur srk humaara aur duniya ka sabse badaa star.. ye samajhlo

  • @javeeeeda

    Abey pakistani peasant what garbage are you spouting about Joker Boy…?

    Didnt CRUSHtom CRUSH Jadoo Boys mahacrapfest Maanvar Ka Darr last Independence Day…?

    If you missed it bcoz you were too busy celebrating your Porkistans Independence Day then no worry as this Indian Independence Day you will get a repeat performance as Joker Boys documentary on toilets will thrash your Queens spin off sequel to The Hobbit franchise titled ‘Smeagols RING’…!

  • @yousaf
    Sunny Deol ruled the 90’s. Followed by Govinda. Then comes Shahrukh Khan.

    Lol. Aamir and Sallu are 2009 born stars. Where was srk when was Sallu gave the HGOTY 2005 in No Entry. Oh yes, he was happy with the disaster Paheli.

    2005 Mangal Pandey earned more than Paheli. Even after a 5 year hiatus Aamir gave RDB and Fanaa bigger hits collected more than Don and KANK in 2006. 2007 Aamir with extended appearance and clash gave a tough competition to CDI collections. While Ghajini easily trashed his biggest blockbuster RNBDJ and created the 100 cr club and according to u Aamir is 2009 born star.

    Maybe Sallu didn’t have consistency but Aamir was always consistent and gave bigger hits than SRK every year more often than not.

    Forget Aamir-Salman, even Akki had managed to outshine srk last decade.

    2005- Akki’s Garam Masala, below average Bewafaa and flop Deewane Huye Paagal earned more than Paheli.
    2007- Welcome earned just 8 cr less than OSO despite the biggest clash of the year. Even a kid knows that HGOTY 2007 belonged to Akki.
    2008-10: Gave bigger openers than Kingu.
    SIK>RNBDJ
    TMK, Housefull>My Name is Khan

    So first compare him with Akki, Hrithik rather than megastars Aamir and Salman.

  • @Ceiling Khan- Where did you get that Gangu Teli sallu ruled 2 decades? In the 90’s sallu had 8 back to back flops/ Disasters like Love, Suryavanshi, Ek Ladka Ek Ladki, Nishchay, Jaagruti, Dil Tera Aashiq, Chandra Mukhi and Sangdil Sanam. Indicine hasn’t included Nishchaiy, Chandra Mukhi and Sangdil Sanam and has included KKHH in sallu’s filmography. BOI has cleared it that SRK ruled the 90’s among Khans. Indicine’s 90’s analysis isn’t acceptable untill the add Nishchaiy, CHandra Mukhi and Sangdil Sanam in sallu’s filmography and delete KKHH. Even Indicine mentioned that SRK was No. 1 from 1992-2009 in spite of working as the PR of sallu.
